    While the weak and drunken King Rudolph of Ruritania (Lewis Stone) awaits his coronation, he is drugged by his brother, Black Michael (Stuart Holmes), who is preparing a coup d'état. Michael's plans are thwarted by the substitution at Rudolph's coronation of Rassendyll (also Stone, in a dual role), an Englishman who is the king's exact double. Michael, discovering the ruse, kidnaps the real king and holds him captive in the castle at Zenda.
